Post Partum Trauma

This week we're talking about trauma. How it comes in many forms and from all different directions. It can start in the very beginning and continue throughout your motherhood journey. It's always about everyone and everything else, about baby, family, and everything in between. We have to bring up and talk about the uncomfortable things too. We're so use to covering it up, holding it in, and not bringing it up, that when we even say the word trauma it's awkward and uncomfortable. But we're here to have the uncomfortable conversations. Because what happened to you is real, and it matters and was traumatic. Whether infertility, miscarriage, carrying, delivery, or anything in between. You're allowed to say that it scarred you, you're allowed to still not be ok. You're allowed to talk about it.

Filtering Bad Advice

How do we filter the good parenting advice from the bad? There's a million different sources from thousands of different people, so how do we filter it? How do we know what to keep and what to toss? In this episode I give my perspective on how we should filter it all....doctors, people, social media, family, etc. My biggest piece of advice, take it all in, but don't take it to heart! Absorb what you need, and leave the rest.

How we speak to ourselves is everything!

How we speak to ourselves is everything, and sometimes we have to check ourselves on it. Just as fast as we are to accept the negative, intrusive thoughts that have become habit, we have to change the narrative to start accepting the good! Be proud, speak positively, and be mindful of who we let influence us. Nothing is a quick fix, everything is easier said than done; but everything is also doable and possible! Let's talk about it.

Gentle Parenting

Is it even possible to gentle parent in today's world? If so, what does that mean? I feel like gentle parenting has just become another way of saying 'perfect parent'. I don't believe there is any one way or best way to be a gentle parent, but finding the best method that works for how you're choosing to raise your family. There is no one way, nothing is cookie cutter, including our kids, so there can't possibly be one way to 'gentle' parent either....especially when said children are known to push us to the brink of insanity. So what's the best way, is there a best way, what does gentle parenting look like and mean to you? Is it all a bunch of bull, is it unrealistic, should we follow directives? Comment below! I'll share all comments to the question on the next episode!

Finding Hobbies in Motherhood

If motherhood isn't stressful enough, now we have to find time to focus on ourselves? Finding the motivation to find a hobby or a 'thing' is daunting and stressful in and of itself, but SO necessary. When we don't have anything to escape to or any other distraction or outlet, we lose ourselves, we lose our minds. The important thing is to start, start somewhere, with something. This is part one, let's talk about it!
